Have TaylorMade got it wrong with the Stealth 2 driver for 2023? After Rory McIlroy saying he’d like to use last years driver and Collin Morikawa switching back to the Sim 2 could there be an issue?

It takes thousands of shots to know if a club is truly "better" or "more forgiving so I truly believe these reviews are bullshit. Sorry, but it is true. Some people also simply find a club they love and trust, and they don't want to switch. Taylormade should be happy he likes the stealth because rory definantly wouldn't have a hard time getting another club sponsor, like titleist in a heart beat!
So which guy won with what driver last weekend? The rest as they say is history.
Well, it all comes down to the fact that Tour players clubs are specially chosen to just comply with CT spec and no more.
It was an open secret that back in the day when clubs were only tested once ( COR tested) the faces sprang more after use and quickly became proper trampolines, but they never reqd retesting.
Now with CT ( characteristic time) test being random tested in non competetive days ( why non?) the Tour players know just how close to non conforming their clubs are.
So no return to old gear for these lads.
Just another example of how very different theTour game is to us normal golfers.
I think the top pro's all chop and change their clubs. Lee Westwood was using old model Ping irons for years. I watched the Honda Classic a couple of weeks ago. The winner Chris Kirk is listed as a Callaway Staff player. His caddie was carrying a Callaway Paradym bag, he wore a cap with the Callaway logo, his woods had Paradym headcovers but when he hit his ball into the water on the 18th and held the club behind his back he had used a Taylormade Stealth fairway wood.
Nice video, Ali, but would you upgrade from Stealth to Stealth 2 for such a marginal gain? I’d guess other manufacturers (e.g. Callaway and Ping) have a more significant gain from last year?
Rory arguably the best overall driver the game has ever seen……and has prob spent more time hitting the new one than we could ever imagine….just doest suit him…yet???
Rory Said it’s too hard for them to shave the face the way I want it shave the face too fast anybody following this he was afraid to bring the other driver because he thought it wouldn’t pass the speed test
Here’s what it comes down to the stuff that comes off the manufacturers line they go to the general public we don’t trust it we’re getting clubs that are slower than @ off the face and feel like the only benefit of any driver anymore or people to swing over 110 miles an hour do you know your whole show would go better if you showed swings of 90 miles an hour maybe 100 but anything above that you’re like 2% of your viewing audience
The sweetspot on basically every modern driver is a bit above the equator, every shot you hit was low with 1 right on that equator which is still low of the sweet spot. Generally slightly above center and slightly off the toe is the true sweet spot, which is always a pin point, no bigger despite company’s false claims of “bigger sweet spots”. The sweet spot changes depending on weighting CG, the club itself, some are more center, most slightly towards the toe, a few slightly towards the heel, but above center a bit is pretty universal across the board with all modern drivers. The computer reading could be off too, we didn’t actually see the ball marks. Low strikes are going to add spin and decrease initial launch but the dead center is almost never the sweetspot on driver. ⛳️🧙♂️💭
If you don’t like a club you don’t like a club it’s as simple as that
If the accuracy comes down to me.. why do I need a new driver?
Love my TaylorMade Stealth Set 💪
I mean Scottie just won the biggest tournament that’s not a major with it. I’d say it’s not too bad 😅
Nothing wrong with that club, the winner played it.
Plain an simple his original stealth was deemed illegal cause of the thinness of the face .. they become non confirming and they can no longer use them due to how many strikes out of the same spot they hit
It’s why rory doesn’t like it cause his old one was effectively cheating but Info is always withheld to protect their posture child
Nobody understands what Rory needs except Rory. It's just that simple.
What’s the life expectancy of golf clubs? I would expect a once a week player would get 5 years out of their clubs. What’s your thoughts? Cheers for your videos 👊
Collin Morikawa put the original SIM Driver back in the bag. Not the SIM2.
Maybe Rory should do less virtue signaling and work on his game. Stealth 2 worked for Scheffler
It’s like watching Rory himself. Perfect comparison!
i was sure i would be getting the STEALTH 2 at 850.00 ( Canadian ) including tax….but they had a SIM 2 MAX there to brand new…tried both….Liked the SIM 2 MAX more in alot of ways…and got it for 399.00 Canadian including the midsize grip…glad at the result and saved 450….cheers from Canada
